That would indeed be annoying... :ick: especially for an XPS, don't that cost an arm, a leg, and a vital organ?

Sorry if this has been implemented already. I think it would be awesome if FRED had WASD and mouse controls for the camera. Space is go up, control is down. :)

I think it would be awesome if one wouldn't have to switch the mouse mode back and forth from camera mode to object placement/selection mode.

Oh wait.

Seriously though, FRED's control scheme is very precise, and easy to grasp. Why do you think that replacing it with something more complex is a good idea?

Because numb pad and mouse are both right-handed, and if its going to be on the pad it should be 8, 4, 5, 6, not stupid and harder to use 8, 4, 6, 2...

I searched "wxFRED wishlist" on HLP and came up with this post alone... do I stick any FRED-related desires in a general wxFRED topic?

We have enough wxFRED2 wishes... what we need is a coder who will make wxFRED2 his dedicated project and shepherd it through its development.

i know this sounds like a total nub but... how to move aft and forward on the plane instead of the camera vector?

and i m left handed, and even tho i m a minority, wasd or customizable controls would be extremely appreciated.

Just line the camera up on the plane and use the camera controls.  There are no other movement keys; this page shows them all.

You can appreciate new features all you want, but I'm sorry to say that without manpower nothing will happen.  Lots of us have our hands full with the projects currently on our plates.

Also, I'm left-handed too, and I've designed many missions with the current controls.  They work fine, once you learn how to use them.

Also left-handed and found the keyboard layout easy to use. If you ask me, WASD is more right-handed because it assumes that the person would use the right hand for the mouse.
